[0001] This utility model relates to the field of industrial remote control, and in particular to a remote control transmitter with a button protective cover. Background Technology
[0002] With the advancement of industrial technology, remote control technology for industrial equipment or engineering machinery has become more widespread.
[0003] Existing industrial remote controls generally have multiple buttons. To improve safety during operation and prevent accidental button presses, the buttons on industrial remote controls are generally designed to be relatively large. Rubber sleeves are also a standard technique for protecting the buttons. However, current technology commonly uses a method of installing a single rubber sleeve on each button. This method is cumbersome during remote control assembly, requiring the installation of a sleeve on each button individually. This further increases production time and costs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a remote control transmitter with a button protective sleeve, thereby solving the problem that the existing technology, which commonly uses a single button with a single rubber sleeve, results in a cumbersome assembly process for the remote control, leading to increased production time and costs.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a remote control transmitter with a button protective sleeve, comprising an upper shell, a lower shell, and a PCB board disposed between the upper shell and the lower shell, wherein the upper shell is provided with a plurality of button holes, and the PCB board is provided with a plurality of buttons, the buttons passing through the button holes and protruding from the plane where the button holes are located; characterized in that it further comprises a button protective sleeve integrally formed of flexible material, the button protective sleeve comprising a base plate and a plurality of button sleeves, the number of button sleeves matching the number of buttons, and the buttons being fitted inside the button sleeves.
[0006] Furthermore, a first protrusion is provided between the button sleeve and the base plate, the side wall of the first protrusion abuts against the inner side wall of the adjacent upper shell, and a gap is provided between the side wall of the button sleeve adjacent to the first protrusion and the side wall of the adjacent upper shell.
[0007] Furthermore, the button sleeve is provided with a second protrusion, which abuts against the edge of the PCB board.
[0008] Furthermore, the upper housing includes a pressure plate, which abuts against the upper surface of the bottom plate of the button protective sleeve, and the lower surface of the bottom plate of the button protective sleeve abuts against the lower housing.
[0009] Furthermore, the pressure plate is an inwardly and downwardly bent vertical plate on the inner side of the upper housing.
[0010] Furthermore, the contact portion between the button protective sleeve and the lower housing is provided with several holes or grooves.
[0011] Furthermore, the lower housing is provided with several protrusions, which are inserted into the holes or grooves of the button protective sleeve.
[0012] Furthermore, the PCB board is provided with several positioning holes, and the protrusion of the lower housing passes through the positioning holes and connects to the button protective sleeve.
[0013] Furthermore, the lower housing is provided with several support members, which abut against the bottom of the PCB board.
[0014] Furthermore, a support plate is provided inside the lower housing, and the support member is disposed on the support plate.
[0015] In summary, the advantages of adopting the technical solution of this utility model compared with traditional technical means are:
[0016] 1. This solution uses a one-piece molded button protective cover. During the installation process, the button protective cover only needs to be installed on the button. Compared with the existing technology, the installation process is simple, saves installation time, improves production efficiency, and reduces production costs.

Detailed Implementation
[0024] The following embodiments of this utility model serve as inspiration. Through the following description, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the technical concept of this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the contents of the claims and description.
[0025] The present invention will be further described with reference to the following figures:
[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a remote control transmitter with a button protective sleeve includes an upper housing 100, a lower housing 200, and a PCB board 300 disposed between the upper housing 100 and the lower housing 200. The upper housing 100 has a plurality of button holes, and the PCB board 300 has a plurality of buttons, which protrude through the button holes and out of the plane of the button holes. It also includes a flexible, integrally molded button protective sleeve 400, which includes a base plate 420 and a plurality of button sleeves 410, the number of button sleeves 410 matching the number of buttons, with each button fitted inside a button sleeve 410. The assembly process simply involves placing the button protective sleeve 400 over the button, then covering it with the upper housing 100, and connecting the upper housing 100 to the lower housing 200 to complete the installation. Compared to the prior art of installing button sleeves individually for each button, this process is more convenient, reduces production and assembly time, and further saves production and installation costs.
[0027] Specifically, flexible materials refer to non-metallic materials such as rubber and silicone; they can also be composite materials or other materials capable of elastic deformation. Their purpose is to protect the buttons and prevent damage. Secondly, during the pressing process, the button sleeve 410 exhibits a certain degree of elastic deformation. Furthermore, the sealing, waterproofing, and dustproofing functions achieved by the button protective sleeve 400, as described below, are also based on the elastic deformation of this flexible material.
[0028] During the pressing process of the button sleeve 410, the button sleeve 410 will deform. Therefore, a first protrusion 430 is provided between the button sleeve 410 and the base plate 420. The side wall of the first protrusion 430 abuts against the inner side wall of the adjacent upper housing 100. A gap 450 is provided between the side wall of the button sleeve 410 adjacent to the first protrusion 430 and the side wall of the adjacent upper housing 100. The gap 450 is the deformation space reserved for the elastic deformation of the button sleeve 410. The abutting between the inner side wall of the upper housing 100 and the side wall of the button sleeve 410 can achieve stable installation of the button sleeve 410, as well as a sealing, waterproof and dustproof effect.
[0029] The button sleeve 410 is provided with a second protrusion 440, which abuts against the edge of the PCB board 300. This can be understood as the second protrusion 440 abutting against both ends and / or sides of the PCB board 300, thus fixing the button sleeve 400 to the PCB board 300 and ensuring horizontal stability during button pressing.
[0030] The upper housing 100 includes a pressure plate that abuts against the upper surface of the bottom plate 420 of the button protective sleeve 400, while the lower surface of the bottom plate 420 of the button protective sleeve 400 abuts against the lower housing 200. The pressure plate presses the bottom plate 420 of the button protective sleeve 400 onto the lower housing 200. During this assembly process, the bottom plate 420 of the button protective sleeve 400 undergoes a certain elastic deformation under the pressure of the pressure plate and the lower housing 200, achieving a sealing effect. Simultaneously, the pressure plate abuts against the inner wall of the upper housing 100, thus fixing the button protective sleeve 400 between the upper housing 100 and the lower housing 200.
[0031] The pressure plate is an inwardly bent vertical plate 110 on the inner side of the upper housing 100.
[0032] When the button cover 400 is installed, it abuts against the lower housing 200. The abutting part includes the contact portion, which has several holes or grooves. The holes or grooves allow for deformation space to accommodate deformation of the contact portion of the button cover 400, achieving a better sealing effect.
[0033] The lower housing 200 is provided with a plurality of protrusions 210, which are inserted into holes or grooves in the button protective sleeve 400. This achieves a better seal between the button protective sleeve 400 and the lower housing 200, and further improves the stability of the installation between the button protective sleeve 400 and the lower housing 200.
[0034] The PCB board 300 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 310, and the protrusion 210 of the lower housing 200 passes through the positioning holes 310 and connects to the button protective sleeve 400. This further improves the sealing effect between the button protective sleeve 400, the PCB board 300 and the lower housing 200, and also ensures the installation stability of the PCB board 300 between the button protective sleeve 400 and the lower housing 200.
[0035] The lower housing 200 is provided with several support members 500, which abut against the bottom of the PCB board 300. The support members 500 prevent excessive button pressing force from damaging the support portions at both ends of the PCB board 300, thus distributing the pressing force across the support members 500 and improving product lifespan. They also further enhance the installation stability of the PCB board 300.
[0036] Since the support member 500 is located between the PCB board 300 and the lower housing 200, and the space between the PCB board 300 and the lower housing 200 is relatively large, the support member 500 is relatively tall. During long-term use under stress, it may shift, affecting the product's lifespan. Therefore, a support plate 600 is provided inside the lower housing 200, and the support member 500 is mounted on the support plate 600. This transfers the stress on the support member 500 to the support plate 600, improving the lifespan of the support member 500, further extending the product's lifespan, and also improving the stability during product assembly.
